Don (2006)

Great Film overall

Brilliant and touching

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

In the name of movie making people do some chu***giri. This movie is a perfect example of it. Made for ch****s. Someone saw a lot of Hollywood movies forgot the origin of don & himself.The whole movie is boring with nonsense dialogues NOT funny at all scenes dumb acting by most of the cast & very very poor direction & editing. The ending is somewhat better than the entire film. Apart from that this movie will only irritate you.Like I said before many actors overacted most of the time. script is so poor that I suspect if there was any.If you have seen a lot of movies & have good knowledge on them then stay as far as possible from this disaster.

Good plot wasted by poor direction.The movie had a good plot or an okay twist but the direction, script & editing spoiled it. Some stupid cliché scenes. Most of the actors were acting as if they were tired & sleepy. Some even tried to overact too much. The movie was dragged too much & have lots of loop holes.It also plays with your patience unnecessarily. The jokes are just terrible it doesn't even bring a smile on your face. The climax of the film & few scenes with srk as a don are good compared to the other scenes.Some fight sequences are okay are some are just bad. overacted at some parts. Its better if you re-watch the original don again rather than wasting time on it.

Don is the movie that shows Shah Rukh Khan at the top of his game. After having already played numerous memorable characters, he has taken the role of DON and made it his own, with shades of many of his previous memorable roles but given a megawatt jolt. His inexhaustible charisma lights up the biggest larger-than-life character in the history of Hindi cinema.Farhan Akhtar demonstrates again why he is one of the most promising directors in Bollywood. He has covered every aspect of the movie with brilliant poise and delivers a highly intelligent action movie. Akhtar has taken of something much revered and made a contemporary, and true, classic that preserves everything laudable about the original, and improves on its every fault. The characters are more fully drawn and their roles are better balanced to provide a more cohesive and engaging narrative.Boman Irani does a commendable job with a crucial role in the movie. Arjun Rampal hardly flinches in what could have been a breakout role but at least stands his ground. Kareena Kapoor makes an excellent turn as the new Kamini and hits every note just right. Lending a lot of substance to the role, she does it more justice than was done to it in the original.It's almost a shame then when Priyanka Chopra becomes the principal female character. She certainly looks the part, especially as it was physically demanding, but doesn't really accomplish anything outstanding with it. Much more note-worthy is Isha Koppikar in the role of Anita. The role is very light on screen time and as subtle as it is brief. Koppikar though, gives a magnificent and under-stated performance to make it shine.The female characters aren't given much focus, but they integrate well into the story and to the central character of DON and give scope for improvement in future instalments of what should become Bollywood's most favoured franchise.The fight sequences could have been improved with better choreography, while the other action sequences range from fairly well-executed to excellent, and all make up a major step forward for Bollywood. The good production value really shows through on the screen.The soundtrack is fantastic and seamlessly complements the on screen proceedings. Each song is not just entertaining, but also progresses the story.The movie has hundred per-cent replay value; it is engaging and entertaining every time.

this one is the FARHAN AKTARS directorial challenge that he fulfilled by bringing an action packed tech-no output film.He took right moves by signing SHAHRUKH KHAN in this venture but the death of the KAREENA KAPOOR is a bit heart breaking in the first half hour for the males.BUT still PRIYANKA CHOPRA ex-miss world managed to capture the viewers till the end through her sex appeal and acting skills n don came out to be a winner for FARHAN AKTARS after a bit unsuccessful venture of him called "lakshya".He would not have been able to promote the film successfully without the equal participation and elongated network of the famous media house called UTV.
